Said my grandfather one evening " A ko'il fifty of us had been engaged fur seve ral days iu performing; a secret duty, aud were returning. Wo had to pai very neai the British lines, and to avoid being taken, ad also to save a wide circuit of miles, we resolved to encamp in a secret place we . anew of, through the. day, and under the' shadows of niht, pass unseen on the direct course to General Morgan's camp. . " The day was beautiful, and the spot we 1 l sl chosen for our resting place was one of those grassy nooks, shut out, apparently, from the rest of the world by lines of hills, impenetrable underbush, and a gigantic for et. A small but clear and deep stream rm by it, and the sun was at such an iticlina-; tion as to throw half of tho little spot in the made. We laid down our arms, relieved ourilves of knapsacks, ami spreading the f auty store upon tho grass, ate with a good : appetite, refreshed ourselves from the lim pid waters of the stream, and then each siiiustd himself as he could. "After resting awhile, some went in to! oathe, and ono by one, as tho pleasure! ecuied to increase, followed, until the whole rty were iu the stream. This lasted for: about hslf an hour, and most of us had re turned to the shore and were dressing, when ' new feature was given to the scene by one ' of th9 number sayin; that ho was going to "ash his ahirt. J "Now mo: tof us had worn these peculiar p-irtncnts twor three, and four weeks, and J otne even longer, without their having been I once washed, and there is o doubt of their! Deeding it very much ; for mind you, tha "in iu those days who could afford two; niris whole shirts was a curiosity. " The idea was therefore a good oue, and "'By immediately began disrobing them selves again, aud loon were busy as wash oniea, rubbing nway like fulling-mills. As the pioecs were finished, they were hung iu the bud en the limbs of trees, or spread out Oh the grass. Many were still engsged at 'heir washing j some wcro slrstched on the ground in deep sleep; soma wrestling, some jumping, aome collected in knots, telling sto "cs, nearly all as naked as the day they ere born in fact, as happy as fallows could b with one shirt, and that drying in 'he itiu, and but a morsel ia tho knapsaok, when we were startled jcrt, indeed, really frightened by a volley of musketry, tlie baling which whiffled by us, fortunately only liiaking a few alight flesh wounds. " The sound of muakctry, although it surprised us at Grst, we were too mueb ao customed to hearing, to retuaio loug under a panic, to the next moment found each man of us in possession of his musket, and himself covered by a tree. We had not long to wait beforo a large body of the British broke through the underbrush, whic h had before concealed ttaetu, and rushed with fixed bayonets upon uj, " Lut their progress was suddenly arrest ed by our Ore, which laid a large number of them dead btfure ui. We. had not time to re-luad, when the enemy again charged down upon u, and we were forced to give way. We ran ome distance, andrre-load-Lutr, stood our ground. I'd to this time we had not thought of the condition wo were in, in, wheu one of the tfficera, all at once, cried out " 4 " ' Boys, will you lose your shirts?' "Casting our ejes around quickly, we gave a b-'jut '"Now for our ahisU !" and rushed for ward like so many naked devils. " As soon as the Iinti-h came to our view, pourt-d in a well-directed fire, and -immediately charged with the bayonet. So suddenly had this movement been made, that, having supposed tbat we were still running the other way, they wore complete ly aurprised, and then caoie thei' turn to run. After them we shouted olill, with our new watch-word ' Shirts.' " The officers of the enemy hnvicg nt Irtiptb aucceerled iu gcuring the attention of the men, wheeled them, aud fine as a return fire, which killing, as we supposed, rome of our party, we aj;ain took to our heels, and the red coats taking up the cry of' siiirt-s,' eaiie pell-mell after us. Again we turned and charged the ISritiah ruiniin', they in their turn, again charging upon u each party shouting 'Shirt.",' until it finally became a regular shirt-tail fight. " At last, becoming !.i).n hht exasperated with the game, and coi..-tai,t!y remluJiJ of our shirts by tLe enemy screaming il iu vur ears', and iceolkeling, u-o, that we wuuld not cut a very ptetiy tiguru returning to (Uirters tns rutottts, we uiaue one despe rate charge, and Gna!!y succeeded in gain ing tha day by driving the British from the field. ' .Several of our party were wounded, but noue killed. Not su with the British. The ead were scattered all over the little green space, and through the wood; and putting n our garments, and leaving the dead to be buried by their own people, we took the circuitous route which we Lad avolJcJ ia the mortitug thereby having been obliged to fight a battle and reached the Camp bout midnight, wher: w caused no little merriment, and olttn afterwards, as we re lated our adrcuture of the ' sl.irt-tail fieht.' "' "Tlll'lf ON IT." A good story has been told of a lisping officer ia tbe V. S. Army, having been vic timized by a brother othcer ( who was noted for bis cool deliberation aud strong nerves,) and his getting square w ith Liui iu the fal lowing manner. The cou'i joker, a captain, was !wa)s quizzing the lisping oflicc r, a lieuteuant, for his i.ervousuf s. " Why," said he one day in the presence of bis company, " nervousness is all loii sene ! I tell you, lieutenant, no brave man will be nervous."' " Well," inquired the li-ping friend, " how would you do, thpose a tiieil with an inch fiith e: thould drop ittL.lt' iu a wa'led an gio in which you had taken theiter l'roui a company of tharp tbojt rs, end where il wath thrrtaiu t'jat if you put out our uolhu you'd gl peppered V " How," said the captain, winking at the cirile, " wLy take il cool aud spit on the fusee." The party brtkc up, and all retired for the night except the patrol. The next morn ing a number of soldier! were assembled, and ta'king in clusters, wheu along came the lieutenant. Lazily opening his eyes he remarked " I want to try an exthperiment thith morning, sud thee how cxthccdiuglr cool you cau be." Saying which, he walked deliberately up to tliu fire burning on the hearth, and plac ed in its hottest centre a powder canister, and instantly retreated. There was but one mode of tfgress from the quarter, and that was upon the parade ground, the road being built up for defence ; the oeeupant took one glauce at the canister, compre hended Lis situation, and in a moment dash ed at the door, but it was fastened on the outside. " Charley, let me out if you love me '." shouted the captain. " Tbpit on the canithcr "' shouted he iu return. Not a'menicnt wasto be lost ; he had at first snatched up a blauket to cover his egress but now dropping it, he raised the window, and-out bo bounded, sans eulotes, sans every thing but a very short under garment ; and thus, with hair almost upon end, he dashed upon a fall parade ground. The shout which hailed hi'n brought on' tho whole barracks to see what was t ' e matter, aud the dignified captain pulled a tall sargcant in front of him to hide him self. " Why didu't you tbpit on it?" inquired the lieutenant. " Bccau e there were no sharp shooters in front to stop a retreat," answered the captain. " All I have got to they, then, ilh," said the lieutenant," that you might have thafo ly done it, for I thware there wathn't a tliingls grain of powder in it 1" The captuin has never spokeu against lervousnosa aince."

We obtained the cir cumstances from a friend-residing iu Allej- hany, a female relative of whom arrived from tho neighborhood on Saturday. On Monday week, quite early iu the evening, tho ' ous of a w idow lady named Mrs. Fow ler, ..ituatcl ol miles thii aide of Froapor, on the Alleghany river, in Westmorelaud coul :v, was entered by a man whose face was blackened, aud whose evident intention was to rob her. She was a middle aged lady, of good circumstances, owned a val uable f.irm, and had a cou-iderahle amount of money iu the house. Scarcely had tha man got fairly intothe dwelling, when he was seized by :ho throat, by a large dojt, which killed Li in beforo he let go his hold. Tho roh'Jer was discovered shortly afterwards, and on his faec being washed, it was dis covered that he was Mrs. Fowlcr'o own son-iu-law. 0.1 tho same day a gentleman named Ja cob Byirly, livinjiutlie same county, about lour miles from l'reeport, shot himself un der tho following eircumstaiiees : His sou bad for some time been talkiug of going West, aud on the day mentioned, came to the viine'.asiuii to start. Mr.Byerly was very much opposed to the idea, and did all in bis power to prevent his off-pring from going. The old gentleman stood in the doorway of hi; resi.li.iKv v.l.i ii son departed and gazed at him until he had vanished from his silit, worn seiiblmj tears commenced coursing dowu nis eie i k, and he seemed perfeetlv uvei powered w i'.h emotions. Mrs. Berl, who was standing beside her hus band, told him there wis no use iu mourn ing over it, ai it could not be reuicdiefd, ami that he had bettei come into the housu and partake of some food, lie went in, but instead of doing as requested, be took a rifle which was hanging against tho wall, aud going outside of the house, he blew his brains out. The sou had got but a mile aud a half from home when the trag ical occurrence took place, and on being in fonnud of tho faet, he retraced his steps, and found liis parent weltering iu his blood. Mr. Byerly was about forty-five years of aye, was possessed of a lars fortune aud had a numerous family. American Fare in Paris.

The late Horatio GatcSj a native of .Massachusetts, was at that time as eminent merchant in Moutreal, and was known aud respected by thousands in Canada?, and his nattve country. Mr. Gates reports the following rejuarks aa hav ing been made iu bi. prujuce by the Duke of Richmond : . " Tho Duke, a short time before his death, in speaking of the government of U.

' As the low aud surplus popu lation of the different nations of Europe will be carried iuto that country.; it is aud will be a receptacle for the bad and disaf fected population if Jiurope, when they are not wanted for soldiers, or to supply the navies, and the European governments will favor such a course.' ' This will create a surplus and majority of. low population, who are so very easily excited ; aud they will bring with them their principles, and in nine cases out of ten, adhere to their an cient and former governments, laws, man ners, and religion, aud will transmit them to their posterity, aud in many cases propa gate them among the natives.' "Those men will become citizens, and. by the constitution and laws, will be invest ed with the riehtu.' scH.ajr.

These remarks were made by the Duke of Richmond, nearly forty years ago for he died in 1 1 0 and the correctness of his assertions has, since that time, been re markably verified. The low and surplus population of Eu rope " hai been brought to this country, as he predicted. It has become " a recepta cle for the bad and disaffected populaliou of Europe." These men have become citi zens of this country, and have been invest- cd with the rijiht of suffrage. The question now arises shall this statu of things continue ? Shall the I".
